Ibyaha byanjye byose n’ ibyago
Nabihariy’ Umwana w’ Imana
Namwitegerej’ ari ku Giti,
Menya yukw’ ari jye yabambiwe
{ Numva mbabariwe, ndanezerwa;
Ndishima } x 2

Mpora mbiharira Yesu; ni W’ uzi
Kujy’ amar’ agahinda mbabaye
Iyo ndiz’ andeban’ imbabazi;
Iyo mbay’ umunyantegenke pe,
{ Yes’ arushaho kump’ imbaraga
Ndishima. } x 2

Nzajya mbiharira Yesu, ntahwcma,
Mfite muri W’ ibyiringiro;
Kumwizera kumpesh’ amahoro,
Nkamwisegura nduhutse neza
{ Turi kumwe, mba ndi mw ijuru pe:
Ndishima. } x 2

Yewe wa mwihebe wese, emera
Kumuharira byose, ntutinye
Nubw’ ari we Rurema wa byose,
Arikw aragukund’ ugayitse
{ Yaguhay’ ikibanza mw ijuru
Tahayo. } x 2
